It was a hard decision to make the step of cutting out the positions for the recptacle plates, as I was fully aware that if I stuuf this up, a full new bottom cowl section was going to be required.
Slow and steady with a lot of double checking was the order of the day !
The hand nibbler tool came in very handy, followed by a considerable amount of file work.
